The panel refreshes and displays the individual items that you selected in the previous tab. On this tab, you can change the amount settled or accounting date.

In the prior example, you could modify the Local Settlement Amount field value to 100.00. The Write off remaining amount field on this panel asks if you wish to write-off the remaining unsettled amount from the item, or leave the remainder in receivable/payable status.

Note

A cash position is not created in the system until the cash activity actually settles. In this example, there is a 888.00 disbursement, but the cash position Units column value is shown as 1221.00. This occurs because the 888.00 has not settled whereas the 1221.00 has settled.

Settle Cash Manually for an Entity that Uses Cash Segregation

If you use the Run Multiple Settlements panel, and you select an entity that uses cash segregation, you can limit settlement processing to transactions associated with a single custodian.

The following fields in the Run Multiple Settlements panel allow you to specify a custodian:

  • View by Custody Location (tag 990). Indicates whether to list unsettled transactions for all custodians. Options include Yes and No. If you select Yes, you limit your results to a single custody location. A custody location is a custodian bank with a custodian bank account number. If you select No, your results include all custody locations for the entity. This field appears if you select an entity that uses cash segregation.

  • Custodian Bank (tag 1146). Specifies a custodian bank with a bank account relationship defined for the entity or the entity's reporting composite. If multiple custodians have bank account relationships with the entity, you can select one custodian. This field appears if you set the View by Custody Location field to a value of Yes.

If you leave the entity fields blank to include all entities in the query, the system can retrieve unsettled transactions for the custody basis as well as for the primary accounting basis.
